“Sometimes an idea so ludicrous, so ridiculous occurs that you’re confounded by the premise that a rational human being could conjure up something so absurd. It’s happened, whether to someone you know, or to yourself. Like that time you decided to taste your deodorant, or the time you were 12 and thought you could fly off of the roof of your parents’ house. A trip to the emergency room and two broken limbs certainly proved that thought to be wrong.
Or, maybe you are the person who decided to create a Web site dedicated to hot dogs. No, let’s clarify. Not just hot dogs, but pictures of people eating hot dogs. Oooooh, then you created a members section and charged people $10 to view the photos.
Oral fixation, anyone? How about a bit homoerotic (not that there’s anything wrong with that)?
Maybe it’s a joke. To be honest, we had no intention of spending $10 to find out. After all, we’re a small, independent newspaper and not some big-business, idea-stealing group of bastards… um, folks. Yeah, folks.
Admittedly, there is a slightly interesting subsection to this site. The WatchMeEatAHotDog.com people have begun a condiment exchange program. You send them condiments and they send you other condiments, spreading the spreads across various parts of the country. OK, the idea of getting condiments from Wichita or Washington may not be very appealing, but the idea of using the Internet as a medium to exchange unusual products is clever.
One can only assume that mayonnaise does not travel very well via snail mail.
The free preview of what the members’ section offers is setup to emulate (what can only be assumed to be) a porn page. It offers photos of celebrities eating hot dogs, voyeurism, oral action and, of course, doggy style.
How can these enticing offers be passed up at the paltry fee of $10? Well, it’s because 1. We’re talking about hot dogs and 2. Are you a freaking moron?”
